AGENDA ITEM
ITEM: Project Programming Resolution for the inclusion of the Lesner Bridge
Replacement project into the Virginia Department of Transportation Urban Roadway
Program
MEETING DATE: November 2,2004
. Background: In order for a project to be included in the Virginia Department of
Transportation's (VDOT) Urban Roadway Program, a Project Programming Resolution must be
adopted by City Council. It is the intent of this action to include Lesner Bridge Replacement
project into the Urban Roadway Program to establish State funding for the Project. This project
would be managed by the City of Virginia Beach in accordance with procedures set forth with
the First Cities Initiative enacted in July 2004.
. Considerations: The Lesner Bridge is nearing the end of its useful life and based on
recent bridge inspection reports, needs to be replaced to avoid imposing weight limits which
would adversely affect the quality of life for the residents and merchants along the Shore Drive
Corridor. The City has established a project in the currently approved Capital Improvement
Program (CIP) to perform a location and design study for a replacement bridge (Lesner Bridge
Replacement Study CIP 2-168). The Lesner Bridge Replacement Study will determine the
location and aesthetic features required to construct a signature bridge over the Lynnhaven
Inlet. The need to replace the bridge was also identified in the Shore Drive Transportation
Study, adopted by City Council in June 2002.
. Public Information: Two public meetings were held during the development of the
Shore Drive Transportation Study. At these meetings, citizens were able to ask questions of
City staff and provide comments related to the study. The study was subsequently endorsed by
the Shore Drive Advisory Committee and adopted by City Council in June 2002.
. Alternatives: Do not approve the programming resolution for these projects and delay
the replacement of the Lesner Bridge.
. Recommendations: Approve the project programming resolution and establish this
project in the State Urban Roadway Program.
.

MEETING DATE:
November 2, 2004
. Background: The City Council has adopted two oceanfront resort area planning
policy documents that relate to this agenda item. They are the June 28, 1994
Oceanfront Resort Area Concept Plan and the January 27, 2004 Creating an Old
Beach District Center. Together, these resources establish strategic goals and
provide planning and development concepts designed to achieve a high quality
resort destination. In addition, two of the Top Priority Actions cited by City
Council for FY 2004 and 2005 include developing action plans to create a first
class beach resort and creating a more specific 19th Street Corridor plan to help
implement many of the planning concepts cited in the original Old Beach District
Center document.
. Considerations: The $203 Million Virginia Beach Convention Center should be
completed in early 2007. As a complement to this important facility, the city has
identified the general location for improvements to 19th Street and related public
park and streetscape systems between the Convention Center and the
Boardwalk. This element is phase 1 of a more comprehensive design and
improvement plan that is scheduled for completion and council consideration
later this year. It will address design and improvement issues affecting the
surrounding 19th Street Corridor area. The intent of this agenda request item is
to obtain Council approval of Phase 1 of the Virginia Beach 19th Street Corridor
Design and Improvements, as shown on the Exhibit A appended hereto, subject
to such future additions, deletions and modifications that the City Council may
direct.
. Public Information: The City's Planning and Public Works Departments have
hosted a number of well-attended outreach sessions to obtain public input and
comment regarding the Old Beach District Center and 19th Street improvements.
Most notable was an open house session attended by approximately 400 people
held at the Pavilion on January 12, 2004. Another public information session on
this topic attracted about 250 people to the Pavilion on October 20, 2004. A
public hearing before City Council was held on October 26, 2004.
. Recommendations: Approval of Phase 1 of the Virginia Beach 19th Street
Corridor Design and Improvements, as shown on the Exhibit A appended hereto,
subject to such future additions, deletions and modifications that the City Council
may direct.

AGENDA ITEM
ITEM:
Elbow Road Phase IIA (CIP 2-065) Fund Transfer
MEETING DATE:
November 2, 2004
. Background: The Elbow Road Phase IIA project was separated from the CIP 2-152
Elbow Road Phase II project to facilitate advance construction of a two lane roadway connection
between Elbow Road and Princess Anne Road. The project will also provide a traffic signal and
turn lane improvements at the intersection of Elbow Road and Salem Road. The project was
advertised for construction bids during the third quarter of FY 2004/2005. During the past year
the construction bid prices for roadway capital projects have increased an average of 28% over
the engineer's estimate. The increase in the construction costs is due to a combination of
increased material costs, and the higher demand for roadway construction contractors in the
Tidewater area. The increase in construction costs has exceeded the funds available for
construction of Elbow Road Phase IIA (CIP 2-065).
. Considerations: An appropriation is necessary to proceed with construction and
complete the Elbow Road Phase IIA project. Funds are available in the crp 2-152 Elbow Road
Extended Phase II project. The attached ordinance will transfer $1,217,000 from the CIP 2-152
Elbow Road Extended Phase II project to the Elbow Road Phase IIA project.
. Public Information: The project was established and included in the Roadway CIP in
FY 2002/2003. During the design phase, a Citizen Information Meeting was held on August 27,
2003 as well as a project information meeting with the New Castle Homeowner's Association.
. Alternatives: If the ordinance is not approved, the project will be delayed until the next
CIP cycle.
. Recommendations: Approve the Ordinance to transfer funds of $1 ,217,000 from the
crp 2-152 Elbow Road Extended Phase II project to the Elbow Road Phase IIA project (Crp 2-
065) to move forward with the construction and completion of the project.
